Modeling Urchin
Modeling Urchin I loved Urchin from the new Knitty, so I went out and bought some green Cascade Jewel. I loved the variation of the thickness of the yarn. Urchin knit up so quickly, once I got the hang of the short rows, that I had to make another… In 3.5 hours, I knit up…

“I’m not taking it off today”

Jay smiling in her new hat and scarf set
This is my first knitted hat. Not as bad as I thought it would be. Too small for my mother-in-law, who it was supposed to be for. My next knitted hat won’t stitch up the back! From the SnB Nation book. This is my favorite new photo of Jay. She’s actually smiling and looks happy!…
